Description

Granular medicament scattering device

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of agricultural machinery, in particular to a solid granular or particulate medicament spreading device.

Background

Agricultural soil-borne diseases are diseases caused by pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, nematodes and viruses that live in the soil with disease residues and, where appropriate, attack crops from the roots or stems of the crops. Examples of pathogens include fungi, bacteria, actinomycetes, and nematodes. The fungi are mainly classified into non-obligate parasites and obligate parasites. Non-obligate parasitism is exogenous root-infecting fungi, such as pythium causing seedling rot and damping-off, rhizoctonia causing seedling blight. The obligate parasitism is plant micro-bundle pathogenic fungi, and typically causes wilting and withering like fusarium oxysporum and verticillium wilt. The severity of root disease is influenced by the composition and concentration of root-end secretions. Therefore, inhibiting the activity of the pathogens of the rhizosphere system becomes the basis for protecting the root system and preventing and treating soil-borne diseases. However, the restriction of the soil physical and chemical factors on the interrelation among plants, soil microorganisms and root pathogens must be considered and considered.

Agricultural soil-borne diseases become one of the main factors restricting the development of high-yield, high-quality and high-efficiency agriculture in China. At present, the domestic and foreign prevention and treatment methods mainly adopt chemical pesticides for prevention and treatment, and excessive use of pesticides not only harms the environment, but also can cause poisoning in livestock and human bodies through food chain accumulation. At present, a better mechanical medicament spreading device is not available in the market, and manual spreading is time-consuming and labor-consuming and is not uniform in spreading; and aiming at different soils, the pesticide application amount is not easy to regulate, which becomes a great technical problem for treating agricultural soil-borne diseases.

Therefore, the invention discloses a granular medicament spreading device which can uniformly spread solid granular or particulate medicaments in soil and achieve the aim of treating soil-borne diseases by reasonably spreading the medicaments to the soil.

The intended uses of the invention are:

in the aspect of facility agriculture, the method is suitable for treating soil-borne diseases and insect pests in plastic greenhouses and greenhouses of vegetables, gardening fields, cash crops and the like. Matching special rotary tillage equipment, uniformly mixing the particulate medicament and finely cut soil, and covering a film on the renovated soil after the renovated soil is re-piled to kill diseases and insects by using the medicament.

In the field of field crops, the method is suitable for sterilizing and killing diseases and pests of soil such as ginger, Chinese herbal medicines and the like and treating weed seeds.

In the aspect of urban soil pollution, the heavy polluted soil is sterilized and disinfected.
